ACB starts inquiry into middlemen-bureaucrats/politician nexus

Hindustan Times  

MUMBAI: The Anti-Corruption Bureau has initiated an inquiry into the names of approximately 100 individuals and entities identified by the Income Tax Department in connection with an alleged nexus involving middlemen, bureaucrats, and politicians in Maharashtra. ACB starts inquiry into middlemen-bureaucrats/politician nexus In response to a Right to Information query filed by activist-lawyer Pravin Wategaonkar, the ACB confirmed that it has commenced an investigation based on the information provided by the I-T Department. In November 2023, the I-T Department informed the Bombay High Court that it had submitted a list of 103 individuals and entities to the Maharashtra ACB. The alleged nexus was brought to light following the I-T Department’s raids in September 2021, which exposed transactions totalling around ₹1,050 crore. Wategaonkar also pointed out that, despite the I-T Department’s assertion that it had shared its findings with law enforcement agencies under the Regional Economic Intelligence Committee, no action had been taken.
